The Girl
This is the story of a girl who lived
In the neighborhood of peace
They said she wanted to sell drugs
Like her dad
No one bet on her
Her future was clouded
And she had barely just begun
Who doesn't want money?
Tell me, who doesn't want money?
To spend it in the city
She wanted bread
She wanted jewels
You don't value shit if you don't cry
The best part of having nothing
Is having to work and sweat
Push the misery aside
Earn respect
With courage and guts
She had it, she knew it
She deserved it
She was worth that and more
She had everything she wanted
Wore the clothes you can only dream of
So many talents
Get lost in nothingness
But when all you’re good for is trafficking
That's what happens
They call you, they call you
Your phone won't stop ringing
They call you, they call you
Your phone won't stop ringing
They call you, they call you
Your phone won't stop ringing
They call you, they call you
Your phone won't stop ringing
They call you, they call you
Your phone won't stop ringing
This is the story of a girl who lived
In the neighborhood of peace
They said she wanted to sell drugs
Like her dad
No one bet on her
Her future was clouded
And she had barely just begun
Who doesn't want money?
Tell me, who doesn't want money?
To spend it in the city
At nine she was there
And respect was what was missing
Without warning, the bullets flew
Is it that hard to get up in the morning?
For being a woman, she carried a gun
You know, to not feel alone
No one likes to get fucked
You always have to think twice
Who eats the shit when it shows up?
If you get out of there, it's because you're lucky
Next time I'll be more careful
Mom, I'll go with people
She had everything she wanted
Wore the clothes you can only dream of
This is the story of a girl who lived
In the neighborhood of peace
They said she wanted to sell
Drugs like her dad
No one bet on her
Her future was clouded
And she had barely just begun
Who doesn't want money?
Tell me, who doesn't want money?
To spend it in the city
